Check out this QCS thread where the OP is calling for mod heads to roll because years ago some posters who haven't been mods in a long time did something he disapproved of, citing discord screenshots from 2018 as their smoking gun. It also features a parallel saga where a poster calls for their 100,000 hour probe to be lifted, and when others note that their account doesn't seem to be probated they respond with "yes, but my other account is", earning them an instant ban :v:

I ordered luscious new gemstones from India and made new earrings for my SA mart thread

Remember my earrings and art are much better than my posting

New stuff starts towards end of page 3 of the thread

Honestly, Jeffrey is maybe one of the nicest well put together dudes I have ever spoken too. Like just a genuinely reasonable person who is at least able to feign an interest in your life. People say they never get him to respond, but I've always been able to message him on discord or the forums and just chat about my day or whatever. I am going to side with Jeff 99% of the time, just because he seems like a legitimately well meaning person.

I do think he needs an executive assistant and a community manager though.


I am so grateful Jeffrey bought the forums!!!!

In the QCS thread Kith posted, they posted a screenshot of the PM in which Jeffrey said he wanted to do the project himself. For some reason Kith literally didn't understand what JoY said. Maybe it was nonstandard language, I forgot. I'm not trying to put anybody down, I think it was a misunderstanding.

looking at the Blizzwatch thread over the past few days since the controversy began, it seems clear it's a little fiefdom for that IK. between that and the QCS thread, I sure wouldn't give buttons to them but maybe it's funnier this way

For a while people were getting real weird about discord. It was either 100% doxxing instant ban or arguing that discord counted as SA posts.

Still not as insane as the users who wanted mods to police the d&d discord after someone bragged how many people he had on ignors.

didn't one of slashies alts post in this thread the other day? It might have been another thread in PYF. They just said 'btw i'm slashie' at the end and I thought it was weird but i assumed they weren't permabanned anymore and also i am not a snitch!

Unless it happened twice, that was someone identifying themselves as Slashie to me, since they went by Slashie on a completely unrelated IRC Discord literally half a decade ago and that's the name I'd have known them by. :v: And as far as I know the two Slashies are completely unrelated, just a super weird coincidence.

She is slashie. I felt certain of this as a regular user but now that I'm an admin I have logs that confirm it. Sure, she *could* have transferred the account to someone else with an identically over-the-top abrasiveness to them but I'm gonna draw the simplest conclusion here.

Seriously? I really thought that was just a misunderstanding/conspiracy theory. Correct me if I'm misunderstanding how they presented themselves, but I'm p. sure that means one of the loudest posters about racism in the administration of this site/DnD, etc was a white lady doing the full Dolezal?

If Tiny Brontosaurus is going to come back under a different name, I'd like her to post in the Interior Decor thread again. She was always really good about encouraging people to share their projects and do interesting things. As much as I love Youth Decay's "Zillow Search Term Of The Day" posts (seriously, the curation is top notch), they do tend to push the thread in a certain direction and there's a lot less posting of posters' personal spaces these days. I miss it.

And, of course, she gave us this in the bEatmstrJ bathroom thread:

Really no he shouldn’t have.

Sharing a PM where someone tells you to gently caress off and then thread banning them is pretty bad form. There was literally one reason for it besides making it all about the IK.

I’m gonna have to go back and look but I don’t even think that person was probated in that thread before that.

There was no reason to make a whole post about (well two actually with two different PMs).

The person who was threadbanned was permad years ago for doxxing their posting enemy in one of the path of exile threads. Not sure if it got overturned, but it’s hard to give them the benefit of the doubt.

From what I understand, he made a couple hundred thousand in Bitcoin and decided that made him posting royalty. He’s extremely opinionated about NFT and eventually earned a permaban - I forget for what exactly but it probably had to do with being obnoxious about Bitcoin. To show how much he “didn’t care”, about his perma, he did/still does a Dare routine where he shows up and starts posting and if he isn’t outed immediately, he eventually outs himself in short order (his QCS thread was pretty funny).

Someone else closer to the NFT thread can probably fill in the blanks.

It was the yang of libertarianism that did Serpah in if I recall - wanting to engage in debates about the age of consent.
